<p>Yeah, I'm surprised by so many MIT fans, though granted I was one when I was applying but then I visited and everything changed [seriously just wasn't the right place for me], but oh well, good luck all of y'all.</p>
<p>My first choice is Harvard, but that's not my only reach. Basically, I'm applying to many reaches because I have a guaranteed shot at a UC.</p>
<p>Yale, MIT, Stanford, UT-Austin, and Rice.</p>
<p>UC Berkeley
Georgetown
NYU
Brown
UChicago
John Hopkins</p>
<p>All prestigious schools, so I'd be elated to get into just one.</p>
<p>MIT all the way!</p>
<p>I wanna go to:
1. Auburn University
2. Middle Tennessee State University
3. East Carolina University
4. Ole Miss University
5. Tulane University
6. University of Tennessee</p>
<p>New mexico state

<p>4.2/3.87, top 10%, wrestling manager, club interact, food server/ idea planner for food service to underprivliged kids, cancer survivor, non-minority, first generation, out of state...etc</p>
<p>^^ur in just so you know</p>
<p>haha, I know....</p>
<p>It doesnt take much of a background or an ivy league to become a nurse, so I figure...what the hell, dont trip, you'll get a job if you maintain a 3.5 and do an internship or whatever. </p>
<p>besides, takes a lot of stress off as far as admissions. </p>
<p>And I cant afford a whole lot (see my post in financial aid: whoaaaa, $10,000 a SEMESTER????)</p>
<p>....... Mit .......</p>

I believe its because the CCers are obsessed by rankings and when it comes to engineering, math, econ, and business, MIT is the 1st or 2nd ranked. Some people, like me, coming from a paradasie, like the "ugly" architechture, and the competitive feel of the campus.</p>
<p>My new top 6 (alphabetical order):</p>
<p>Columbia
Cornell
Harvard
MIT
Rutgers
Yale</p>

<p>And need to do more research...</p>
<p>What do you mean under 1), 2) and 3)?</p>
<p>I think he broke it into categories by preference. His favorite schools are Yale and MIT; then Harvard and Princeton; then Duke, Hopkins, and Caltech.</p>
